One of my daily sites to hit is Yahoo.  Mainly for the news, actually literally only for the news.  You know, anything that's new, whatever that may be getting my attention.  As of late, I have been getting annoyed with all they're covering.  A lot of it is Hello Giggles and Kim Kardanshian and how Blue Ivy is so damn adorable.  No more Beyounce, please!!!  Just stop!.

I read gaming news, but I don't just want one genre or topic to read on.  I want to be surprised by the spectrum of all things happening now.  Facebook, twitter, instagram, all of that is just fluff like yahoo too, so I don't go there. 

If you can, please give me sites I can just get lost into.  And please, real articles.  Good, finely written articles.
